I weigh 160lbs and I never go above ~85PSI in mine. Even that's inappropriately high if the road surfaces are rough.

The minimum pressure on Vittoria tires from that generation has nothing to do with anything. They basically brainstormed the highest load that they could imagine someone putting on a bicycle, and then stated the lowest pressure that would stay within ETRTO drop requirements at that load.
